A modular electronic device system includes an electronic device and a cover for the device that allows the device to be mechanically and electrically mounted to a stand or device adapter on the rear side of the cover. The cover or device adapter can be connectable to modularly attachable and removable accessory devices and can provide electrical ports for powering and operating the accessory devices. While mounted to a stand, power and data communications can be provided to the electronic device, cover, and accessory devices from the stand or an external source. The modular components of the system can be interchangeable to allow the system to be adapted to many different settings and use cases based on the types of components included as the accessory devices and based on the number of accessory devices used.

Systems and methods for changing an end effector are provided. A robot flange may have a first receiver and a first electrical connection. An end effector may have a second receiver, a second electrical connection, and a locking assembly. The locking assembly may be configured to releasably secure the end effector to the robot flange. A connector may have an interface and an electrical connector for transferring at least one of power and data from the first electrical connection to the second electrical connection. The interface may be received by the first receiver and the second receiver when the connector is positioned between the robot flange and the end effector and the locking assembly secures the end effector to the robot flange.

Systems and methods for changing an end effector are provided. A connecting plate may have a first side, a second side opposite the first side, and a kinematic interface. The kinematic interface may include at least one projection extending from both the first side and the second side. A robot flange may have a first kinematic receiver including at least one recess for receiving a corresponding projection of the at least one projection of the first side. An end effector may have a second kinematic receiver and a locking assembly. The second kinematic receiver may include at least one recess for receiving a corresponding projection of the at least one projection of the second side. The locking assembly may be configured to releasably secure the end effector to the robot flange.

A convertible force latching system includes two complementary connector bodies. Each connector body has a first mating face under which two series of magnets oriented alternating directions. A moving portion of the latching system allows the connector bodies and the magnets within to alter their alignment by the interaction of a user along a predetermined motion path. In a first arrangement, the series of magnets are aligned with such that the magnets of one connector body are attracted to the magnets of the other connector body. When the user actuation shifts the moving portion, the second arrangement positions the series of magnets such that they are aligned such that the magnets of one connector body are repelled to the magnets of the other connector body.

Between a housing and a position ensuring member, provided are: a first locking mechanism that locks move of the position ensuring member at a standby position in an ensuring-operation direction toward a fitting assured position when a lever member is not at a completely fitted position; and a second locking mechanism that locks move of the position ensuring member at the fitting ensured position in an ensuring-release direction that is a reverse direction of the ensuring-operation direction when the lever member is at the completely fitted position. Between the lever member and the position ensuring member, provided is a locking release mechanism that releases a locked state of the position ensuring member with the first locking mechanism when the lever member comes at the completely fitted position.

The present application relates to an electrical connection apparatus and an illumination system. The electrical connection apparatus comprises: a strip-shaped main body; a first and a second electrical connection terminals, provided at a first end and a second end of the main body respectively, and configured to be electrically connected each other and to a first electrical and a second interfaces respectively; and a spacing structure provided between the first end and the second end of the main body, having a platform portion provided at a part of the spacing structure facing towards the first end and a step portion higher than the platform portion, provided at a part of the spacing structure facing towards the second end, and the step portion fits the surface of the second electrical interface. The technical solutions of the present application provide a stable electrical connection between interfaces.

An electrical connector configured to be mated with a mating connector along a mating direction includes a plurality of contact elements each having a contact surface at least partially inclined with respect to the mating direction. The contact elements are spaced apart from each other along a circumferential direction with respect to the mating direction.

A plug-in device for an arrangement for goods display, having a socket mounted on a supporting structure, and a plug-in part having a plug-in portion plugged into a receptacle of the socket. An electrification arrangement, in the connected state of the plug-in device electrically supplies electricity via the plug-in device, with an electrical connection being established via the socket and the plug-in part in that an electrically conducting contact is established by galvanic contacting between a first contact point and a second contact point. The first contact point is formed on the socket and the second contact point is formed on the plug-in portion such that, in the connected state, the first contact point in and the second contact point are electrically contacted with one another.

A detection device for detecting an insertion depth of a terminal of a cable connector inside a housing of the cable connector includes a positioning assembly and a detection assembly. The positioning assembly positions the housing of the cable connector. The detection assembly includes a first driving device, a sensing element mounted on the first driving device and movable by the first driving device, and a displacement sensor mounted on the first driving device and movable in a moving direction of the sensing element by the first driving device. The displacement sensor is connected to the sensing element and senses a displacement of the sensing element.
